Been rather busy since last post. Uni has started up again and has been rather hectic! Here's some things i've done:


1. Handed these concept posters up today. I was pretty happy with how they turned out and the tutor was pleased with the direction of the project. Lots of refining to do...





I had to teach myself Rhino, which was a slow and frustrating process and I'm still very much a novice. Had a lot of fun painting the two bottom images (which I actually did before any of the other stuff, which then informed the design).

2. I also was grateful to be asked to do the cover for a friend's book, Wilkinson IV. I built a quick sketchup model for him months ago and we only recently got together again to refine it and turn it into a front cover illustration with photoshop.



This also features inside of it, which I did absolutely yonks ago (you can tell)

You can totally buy Felim's book online too right here! Do it! It's criminally cheap!  http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/143396
In another month you'll also be able to get it on the Kindle and Apple store, so then there will be no excuse!

3. In what's left of my spare time i've been trying to continue drawing /painting. I'm starting to enter conceptart.org's environmental challenges. Here are the last two entries...


AT THE BANKS OF THE GLOWING RIVER

EARTH'S WOMB

Ill also throw on here some random sketches / thumbnails i've been doing to practice composition and design.






Finally ( long post...) I'll be posting some work I'm doing for a friend's business's website. Pretty exciting... my first paid commission!

Thanks for checking in
Tim.
